Title: 1 product/multiple categories --> Search brings up multiple categories (searchs)
Post by: mike_tnng on November 14, 2013, 09:19:00 AM
Hi guys,

We're doing a new site found here:

www.nwjcorp.com/joomla3

Upon using the search feature for a particular piece of jewellery, ring or SKU - it bring up the same product and all it's parent categories.

This is making life very hard us >,<


I've found a few fixes for virtuemart extended search - but this is only for 1.5 etc...

We're on joomla 2.5/3.0 and VM 2.0.20b

Please assist if you can - this is tremendously urgent...

Should you need to contact me directly, please do so below:

Remove the higher categories from your product.

There is also an option in the vm config, which can prevent this. Looks like this are childs?

We really need the multiple categories, because we need to offer "Men's rings" and "rings from x brand" etc...

I'll look for this VM option you speak of - thanks.
